    Re: Hello banjo cafe players

    Hi Arnie, thanks for the link. I listened to your video of "Last Days of Autumn" and really enjoyed it. I sensed a little taste of Celtic in the rythmn, or maybe it's just me? Either way the melody...

    Okay so Danny Barnes, now I gotta go out & buy a couple new albums. Thanks a heap Mike! (Seriously, great videos) First thing I wonder is, "Apparently I don't really need picks?"

    Re: Welcome!
